Hmmm, I haven't seen that failure mode before. MMU handling on an of my virtex platforms has never been a problem. Take a look at the TLB registers to see how they are configured to see if the mappings are really getting written. What kernel version are you using? Cheers, g. -- Grant Likely, B.Sc., P.Eng.
